Questions on Kemetic Worship of Osiris/Isis/Horus

[RakliDipity]

I was browsing the Internet one day and I found this page dedicated to Isis on Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isis). It mentions that Isis was originally worshipped as a throne goddess and the wife to Horus, with Horus' mother being Hathor.
I was wondering if there is any truth in this, and do any modern Kemetics worship her like this?
Thanks :hahugh:

I've never heard of that myself, and Wikipedia is rarely a good source, but who knows. ;) Hathor (Hethert) is sometimes the wife of Horus the Elder (Heru-wer), though! But Isis (Aset) has, to my knowledge, always been the wife of Osiris (Wesir), and the mother of Horus the Younger (Heru-sa-Aset, Heru son of Aset).

Aset ("Isis") is a throne goddess -- that's why her headdress is a throne glyph. However, the idea that being a throne goddess makes her the wife of the guy sitting on it, sounds like someone's speculation. She is the wife of the Past King and New Lord of the Dead (Wesir), and the mother of the New King, Heru-sa-Aset. This actually makes a more meaningful myth, as She (the throne) persists even as turmoil changes everything else -- thus expressing that there are foundational things we can rely on.

Or maybe that's just my take on it. ^_^...

Thanks for your insight, Temwa, I'll bare that in mind for the future and Erincelt, I can see what you mean when you say how she's almost like a foundational structure, (excuse the non-poetic like description) you know something that's there, something that you can always lean upon (or sit upon, if you pardon the pun ;))
